日常生活中，以下這些對話或許會出現在我們的親密關係裡， 我們可能察覺到有什麼不對勁，但又不知道該怎麼辦…… 「你昨天去哪裡？跟誰出去？去幹什麼？為什麼不接電話？！」──控制 「你每次都忘記我要你做的事，你是真笨還是有什麼毛病？」──辱罵 「我不會放過你的。」「那我就死給你看。」「我會把孩子帶走。」──威脅 「我根本沒那麼說過。」「你根本沒告訴過我。」「那根本沒發生過。」「你太敏感了……」──煤氣燈操縱（gaslighting） 情緒虐待是一種非生理性的暴力， 加害者會辱罵、貶低或控制受害者， 這是有系統、非身體上的霸凌； 它包括一種行為模式，目的是使受害者痛苦、失去信心，並受到控制。 這往往比生理上的傷害更難以察覺，也遠比我們以為的更普遍。 情緒虐待除了發生在伴侶關係之外，親子及婆媳關係、 職場及學校的人際關係等等也經常出現。 有些人一輩子所認知的人際關係都被扭曲地形塑，其背後的原因錯綜複雜。 本書分析各種加害者的人格障礙，包括： 反社會型人格障礙（ANTISOCIAL PERSONALITY DISORDER, APD） 自戀型人格障礙（NARCISSISTIC PERSONALITY DISORDER, NPD） 邊緣型人格障礙（BORDERLINE PERSONALITY DISORDER, BPD） 做作型人格障礙（histrionic personality disorder, HPD） 人格障礙是一種偏離文化規範的經驗與行為模式，會導致明顯的痛苦和功能障礙。 這種模式遍布於各種環境與關係中，會影響人的思考及看待世界、自己和他人的方式。 許多處於虐待關係中的人，都會懷疑自己是否應該注意到警訊，可是一開始卻沒看出來。 虐待關係起初都是加害者迅速投入、過度體貼、全神貫注在受害者的安全或幸福，而且對關係有不切實際的期望，最後演變成各種「操控」手段。 例如，侮辱譏諷、言語恐嚇、人身攻擊、不溝通的冷戰、無止境地干擾索求、懲罰、金錢控制……，種種行為使得受害者喪失自信、自尊，精神耗弱，甚至萌生自殺的念頭。 為此── ＊書中將分成三個階段： 1.如何辨識情緒虐待、開始採取行動、勇敢向前邁進。 2.從提供訊息開始，幫助我們將經驗放到脈絡中， 3.接著引導我們檢視自己的關係，指引我們走向復原之路。 ＊本書適用於所有類型的人際關係： 不僅針對伴侶關係，而是對所有類型的人際關係
